Minnesota Governor Tim Walz said on Thursday that he was "surprised" that he and Vice President Kamala Harris lost this year's presidential election to President-elect Donald Trump.
"In this campaign, when you ask the question: 'Are there things you could've done differently?' Since we lost, the answer is obviously yes. On this one, I did the best I could," he told local news station KSTP-TV in his first interview since the election.
He went on to admit that he thought the Harris-Walz campaign had "momentum," so he was "surprised" when they lost.
"It felt like at the rallies, at the things I was going to, the shops I was going in, that the momentum was going our way. And it obviously wasn't at the end of time. So yeah, I was a little surprised [we lost]. I thought we had a positive message and I thought the country was ready for that," the governor added.
